Thanks for this. The outer cardboard packaging has no differences. *But the white plastic case does have 1 difference: Sonoff Basic R2 has the "CE" mark in between the push button and the WiFi LED - the original Sonoff Basic just has a blank white space here.* The circuit boards have many differences as this video shows, but the most important one is the addition of 2 thick insulated black wires to carry mains AC voltage from input switch over to output. On the original Sonoff Basic these black wires are not present, instead thick heavily tinned traces are used on the circuit board for the same job. This is less safe, which is probably why they improved the design for revision R2. So when buying one, always ask your seller if there's a CE mark on the front of the white plastic case. The original Sonoff Basic has writing on the circuit board which says: "Sonoff Basic R2 V1.0 ". This is confusing & misleading, so use the CE mark and black wires to detect a real R2. There is a new "Sonoff Basic R3" out now, which uses a very different case and circuit board design. This one has a new "DIY mode" which in theory allows easier OTA flashing, but the reviews are mixed and it costs quite a bit more than the earlier Sonoff Basic models...

Is there any way to change R2's LED colors? I don't like Blue for OFF state and Purple for ON state. I wish I could change to Red for OFF and Green for ON.

But what differences do R1 and R2 have from a performance point of view? Once paired with the app, do they have the same functionality? thank you
